Erick Fayard wears many hats—ball cap, safari, fedora, newsboy, cowboy—depends on the gig.
But no matter the stage or the setup, one thing stays constant: he brings a storyteller’s enthusiasm and a legacy-builder’s heart to everything he does.
A singer-songwriter with roots in Louisiana and boots planted firmly in Texas soil, Erick has been serenading crowds across the Lone Star State and beyond for over a decade. From the neon glow of the Fort Worth Stockyards to the spotlight at House of Blues in Victory Park, his songs have echoed down highways and backroads stretching from Amarillo to Austin, Midland to Marshall.
But his reach doesn’t stop at the state line. Erick’s music has made its way across the country—gracing stages in New Orleans, Los Angeles, Nashville, Detroit, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and more—proving that a good song doesn’t need a map, just a heartbeat.
Before the music, Erick spent years in the world of news and sports, graduating from LSU in 2002 with a degree in Mass Communications. As a reporter, anchor, and producer, he learned the art of capturing moments—and stories that mattered. His team even took home a 1st Place Associated Press Award for Best Sportscast in 2004. Whether behind a mic or a camera, Erick’s always had one goal: to connect.
Now based in Dallas, Texas, Erick splits his time between live gigs, songwriting sessions, and quietly fine-tuning his next big idea—usually with a strong cup of coffee nearby. His original music is available on iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and just about every place good music calls home.
He isn’t chasing noise. He’s crafting resonance. Because for Erick, the best stories aren’t just heard—they’re felt.
